Review: Kick start your fish tank - If you decide to aid the cycling of your planted fish tank, this will help. I used this as a thin layer between the base soil and the decorative stone to finalise the look. I trick to make your planted fish tank maintain clear water. I would have preferred to order 2 bags rather than 1.
